Sasuke the Sister-Complex User and Naruto the Bro-Con

"Hey, where are you looking, you guy? In such a rush?"

Naruto followed in Sasuke's footsteps, unable to help but ask.

He noticed Sasuke's gaze drifting among the surrounding crowd, as if searching for something.

"Naruto, school's out, why are you still following me?" Sasuke turned his head with a touch of helplessness, looking at the curious Naruto.

There wasn't much expression on his face, but his eyes betrayed a hint of impatience.

"I'm looking for my sister." Sasuke's voice was low and firm; he scanned the surroundings once more, trying to find that familiar figure in the crowd.

Naruto was taken aback, then laughed: "School just ended, going home is boring anyway, why not come eat ramen with me!"

He proposed, his face brimming with anticipation.

However, Sasuke only responded coldly: "Not interested in that ramen."

His gaze never left the crowd, as if searching for a vital clue.

Seeing this, Naruto couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed.

But he didn't give up, continuing to follow behind Sasuke, trying to find a topic to chat with him.

"Hey, Sasuke, have you found anything fun lately?" Naruto tried to pique Sasuke's interest with a lighthearted topic.

Sasuke didn't respond, continuing his search for his sister's figure. His heart was filled with worry and unease, as if something were about to happen.

Seeing this, Naruto stopped talking and just followed silently behind Sasuke.

He knew Sasuke was in a bad mood and that what he needed most right now was quiet and solitude.

The two little ones walked one after the other, weaving through the bustling crowd.

"Found her!" Sasuke's eyes lit up with joy, as if he had discovered a precious clue in this dim alleyway.

He walked forward quickly, his figure appearing exceptionally determined under the dim streetlights.

Naruto followed closely behind, asking curiously: "Found what? Found treasure?"

His eyes sparkled with excitement, as if ready to join a treasure-hunting adventure at any moment.

Sasuke glanced back at Naruto and shook his head helplessly: "You guy, really... stop always thinking about treasure."

Though his words carried a hint of reproach, they were mostly filled with speechlessness.

Naruto chuckled and scratched his head: "Hehe, I was just joking. So what did you actually find?"

Sasuke didn't answer immediately, continuing toward the public bench.

His steps were steady, but the joy in his heart was hard to hide. He had found his sister; the matter he had been worrying about all this time finally had a resolution.

As the two approached, the figure on the public bench gradually became clear.

It was a tall woman with a beautiful face—none other than Sasuke's sister, Uchiha Ruri.

She sat there quietly, eyes fixed on Sasuke and Naruto, seemingly lost in thought.

"Sister!" Sasuke called out softly, afraid to break the peaceful atmosphere.

Hearing the voice, Uchiha Ruri turned her head. Seeing Sasuke and Naruto, a look of surprised delight appeared on her face: "You two are finally out of school. Come on, I'll take you to get Ichiraku Ramen!"

Watching Naruto's shocked expression, Sasuke couldn't help but chuckle.

He nodded, confirming Naruto's guess: "That's right, she is both a teacher at our school and my sister, Uchiha Ruri."

Naruto's eyes widened, as if he had seen something incredible.

He rubbed his eyes and looked at Uchiha Ruri again to confirm he hadn't seen wrong.

He couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, Sasuke, your sister is so beautiful! And she's a teacher too, that's amazing!"

Hearing this, a proud smile appeared on Sasuke's face. He had always been proud of his sister, and seeing Naruto so envious and full of praise, his heart swelled with pride.

Uchiha Ruri watched their interaction, feeling a sense of warmth. She walked over to them and gently patted their heads: "Alright, stop standing there like fools. Let's go, let's get some Ichiraku Ramen."

Hearing the words "Ichiraku Ramen," Naruto's eyes lit up instantly. He jumped up in excitement: "Yay! I love Ichiraku Ramen the most!"

"Wait?" Sasuke said hurriedly: "Aren't you going to go back and teach me ninjutsu?"

"Why are we going to eat Ichiraku Ramen instead!"

Uchiha Ruri couldn't help but chuckle at Sasuke's eager look.

She gently stroked Sasuke's head and said softly: "Sasuke, practicing ninjutsu is important, but you can't neglect the joys of life. Besides, I want to relax with you two today and enjoy some good food."

Sasuke looked hesitant. He frowned, seemingly weighing the balance between training and relaxation.

He knew his goal was to become stronger, but he couldn't bear to brush off his sister's good intentions.

He turned his head to look at Naruto, hoping for some inspiration.

Naruto, seeing Sasuke's hesitation, could no longer suppress his craving for Ichiraku Ramen.

He impatiently grabbed Uchiha Ruri's hand, his eyes sparkling with anticipation as he shouted excitedly: "Teacher Uchiha Ruri is right! Training is important, but you have to know how to enjoy life! Ichiraku Ramen, here I come!"

His voice was filled with youthful passion and expectation, as if the whole world had become wonderful because of this bowl of ramen.

However, this action of his triggered Sasuke's vigilance.

Sasuke had been silently watching over Liuli, and as he saw Naruto holding her hand, an inexplicable surge of jealousy welled up within him.

He furrowed his brows, his eyes revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and wariness, as if warning Naruto not to overstep his boundaries.

"Naruto, where do you think your hand is?" Sasuke suddenly frowned, his voice laced with seriousness and displeasure. Although Sasuke was usually a man of few words, every time he spoke, it carried weight; it was clear he was unhappy with Naruto's behavior.

Upon hearing this, Naruto froze for a moment. He turned to look at Sasuke, a sheepish smile appearing on his face. He scratched his head and explained, "Oops, Sasuke, don't get the wrong idea. I just got a little excited and couldn't control myself."

Watching Naruto's grinning face, Sasuke's dissatisfaction only deepened.

He frowned and said coldly, "Naruto, you know how my sister feels about you, but you can't just act so casually, can you?"

Naruto grew anxious at these words. He waved his hands hurriedly to explain, "No, that's not it, Sasuke, listen to me. I really didn't mean anything by it. I just feel like Teacher Liuli is like family to me, that's why I... I acted like that."

Seeing Naruto's desperate expression, the dissatisfaction in Sasuke's heart eased slightly.

Still, he kept a straight face and said, "Even so, you should mind your boundaries. After all, men and women should keep their distance; acting like this will only make Teacher Liuli uncomfortable."

Hearing Sasuke's words, a wave of guilt washed over Naruto. He truly hadn't considered Liuli's feelings, having been completely swept up in his own excitement.

He lowered his head, silent for a moment, before looking up at Sasuke and saying, "Sasuke, you're right. I didn't think it through. I'll be more careful in the future."

Seeing Naruto's earnest expression, the last of Sasuke's dissatisfaction finally dissipated.

He nodded slightly and said, "Hmph, as long as you know. We are friends, but you shouldn't cross the line when it comes to certain details." Though his voice was calm, the sincerity and firmness behind it were unquestionable.

When Naruto heard Sasuke mention the word "friend," a warm current flowed through his heart.

He gave Sasuke a firm pat on the shoulder, a brilliant smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he said, "Don't worry, Sasuke! I know my limits. We're best friends, and I'll always support you!"

His eyes shone with a resolute light, as if no matter what difficulties they faced, he would stand by Sasuke's side without hesitation.

Sasuke looked at the trust and support in Naruto's eyes, and an inexplicable emotion stirred within him.

He had always been a lonely person, and very few people could truly understand his inner thoughts and feelings.

But Naruto was different; he could always see through to his heart and offer him support and encouragement.

This feeling of being understood and accepted made Sasuke feel both warm and at ease.

For the longest time, he had been accustomed to facing all difficulties and challenges alone, bearing his inner loneliness and pain by himself.

However, with the companionship of Naruto and Liuli, he had gradually begun to feel the power and warmth of friendship.

Both Sasuke and Naruto had childhoods filled with tragedy and pain. They both shared the experience of losing loved ones and had tasted the bitterness of loneliness.

This shared history created a resonance between them, as if they could understand the pain and struggle deep within each other's hearts.

Naruto's enthusiasm was like a beam of sunlight, illuminating the dark corners of Sasuke's heart, though it could also be irritating, or even hateful.

He always expressed his care and support without reservation, making Sasuke feel a warmth he had never known before.

And the appearance of Liuli was like a clear spring, allowing Sasuke to find support and solace whenever he felt exhausted or confused.

With the company of Naruto and Liuli, at least Sasuke no longer felt lonely or helpless.

He took a deep breath, and the gloom in his heart seemed to dissipate along with it.

He looked at Naruto again, his eyes softening with a touch of intimacy. He said, "Naruto, thank you for your constant companionship and support. Although I may be strict with you at times, it's because I want you to become better. At the very least... we are friends, and I will always be here to grow alongside you."

Naruto was even more moved by Sasuke's words.

He knew that Sasuke's personality was relatively introverted and cold, yet he could clearly feel Sasuke's care and concern for him.

He laughed and said, "Sasuke, you really are my best brother!"

Meanwhile, Liuli was quietly watching the two little ones bicker and then reach a peaceful resolution.

Just like always, they were constantly arguing over trivial matters.

But this time, Liuli noticed an interesting detail—Naruto had unconsciously taken her hand.

At that moment, she felt her heart skip a beat, and an inexplicable warmth surged into her chest. She actually felt a little excited inside! What was going on?

She looked down at the hand held tightly by Naruto, a strange emotion welling up within her.

Oh my, these two little ones are kind of cute.

At the same time, this couldn't help but make Liuli feel amused, yet also somewhat puzzled. Sasuke, that usually calm and steady boy, when did he start becoming so dependent on her?

This sudden change caught her off guard, as if she had been swept into an inexplicable storm.

Recalling the past, Sasuke had always borne everything alone, his eyes always revealing a sense of determination and resolve.

He trained alone, faced difficulties alone, and never showed his vulnerability to anyone.

Yet now, he was like a little child, always sticking by her side, seeking comfort and reliance.

Liuli tried to understand this change, but she deduced that it seemed to have been this way ever since she transmigrated here?

She didn't know when Sasuke had undergone such a change, but she knew how she should respond.

Thinking of this, Liuli sighed helplessly.

She shook her head, gently patted both of their heads, her voice as soft as a spring breeze: "You two little ones, stop arguing. You're both good friends; helping each other is what matters most. Little Naruto likes ramen, so this sister will take you there. Since you haven't had dinner either, Sasuke, let's all go together."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke pursed his lips slightly, appearing somewhat reluctant, yet he didn't want to seem too antisocial.

He looked up at Liuli, a flash of complex emotion in his eyes, and finally nodded, saying calmly, "Fine, let's go together then. I'm only eating ramen; I'm definitely not doing it to keep Naruto company."

Naruto was speechless upon hearing this, rolling his eyes at Sasuke with a playful smirk, "Buddy, why are you acting all tsundere now?"

Sasuke's brow furrowed at the word "tsundere," clearly displeased by the term.

He turned his head to look at Naruto, a glint of provocation flashing in his eyes, "Who are you talking about, dead-last?"

Hearing the label "dead-last," Naruto's eyes widened as he glared at Sasuke and retorted loudly, "I am the future Naruto, not a dead-last!"

Liuli sighed helplessly as she watched the two of them bickering again.

She knew that although these two little ones often squabbled, the friendship between them was profound.

She decided not to intervene further, letting them resolve this minor dispute on their own.

After a while, the sound of their arguing gradually died down. Sasuke and Naruto glanced at each other, both looking somewhat awkward as they hung their heads in embarrassment.

They could both seemingly feel a trace of guilt and regret in each other's hearts; after all, that argument just now had indeed been a bit excessive.

"Hmm~ you two little ones, are you done fighting?" Liuli asked softly, her voice laced with a hint of teasing.

Resting her chin on her hand, she watched them with eyes full of amusement.

She knew that even though these two little ones often bickered, they would soon be back to normal.

"Uh." Naruto scratched his head, answering sheepishly. He knew his words just now had been impulsive and he shouldn't have argued with Sasuke.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions, then looked at Sasuke, wanting to say something.

Sasuke pursed his lips slightly, not answering immediately. He was also reflecting on his own behavior, knowing he had been a bit over the top.

He looked up at Naruto, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. Finally, he nodded and said calmly, "Yeah, I'm done."

Seeing this, Liuli breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew these two little ones had realized their mistakes, and now they just needed some time and space to resolve things themselves.

Thus, she smiled and said, "Alright, you two little ones, stop making a scene. I know you are both good friends, and occasional small disputes are normal. But remember, friendship requires mutual understanding and tolerance. Don't fall out over trivial things; it's not worth it."

Sasuke and Naruto both lowered their heads silently upon hearing her words. They knew she was right; their friendship indeed required more understanding and tolerance.

They decided not to argue so easily in the future and to cherish their friendship more.

Liuli felt a sense of relief as she watched them reconcile. She knew the two little ones had finished their quarrel.

"Then let's go, let's go eat Otsutsuki Clan ramen." Liuli's gentle voice drifted on the breeze.

She took Naruto and Sasuke's small hands in hers; their little fingers trembled slightly in her palm, as if they could feel the warmth of her strength.

"Okay!" Naruto and Sasuke responded in unison, their eyes sparkling with anticipation.

They followed closely behind Liuli, their small steps skipping as if they couldn't wait to taste the legendary Otsutsuki Clan ramen.

Liuli watched them with a smile, her heart filled with warmth. She knew that although these two little ones were always roughhousing, deep down they cared for and relied on each other.

And today, she decided to take them to taste that delicious Otsutsuki Clan ramen, to make the bond of their friendship even stronger.
